I attended the Erie Lackawanna Historical Society's annual Symposium, where I gave a presentation on modeling the Southern Tier and how I'm interpreting it on my home layout. No surprise here, but I learned more from the audience than they learned from me.

Something I else learned prior to arriving at the venue: When you are making your list of things not to forget, such as your thumb drive, laptop, camera, overnight bag, wife, and snax, make sure you have your cellphone on that list...  :facepalm:

I think @samusi01 did such a great job on the JSH70s design. I have four printed and in various states of progress right now. This one is the closest to done. I did a little extra work so I could use Tangent trucks, and I installed some NPossible couplers after taking this shot. Now I just need to weather it and get it in service (one of the loads Sam designed too for fun).

These were a custom set designed by a friend and printed at Fusion. They saved me a ton of time versus splicing individual sets together.

That is my favorite part of giving my "Modeling the NCR" presentation!
